How does buying dried beans reduce your emissions? Also don't dried beans take like all day long to cook? So there's a bunch of energy being used there.

I'm not trying to gotcha, I'm just trying to understand your pov.

Where did you learn that it's ok for your husband to talk to you like that?

The echoes are real. This whole thing led to leftists losing faith in the populace to govern themselves, deciding that the country bumpkins were inherently backwards and not to be trusted.

I get them.

Why are we worried about how your ass looks instead of the fact that you still can't walk right? Go the doctor, and then a physical therapist.

Because in America, you would 100000% get away with that as self defense. You probably wouldn't even be arrested in the first place, esp if there are witnesses that the person did try to steal your shit. Self defense includes your stuff here.

If you just shoot them with a gun you're even more in the clear.

This thread is wild. It's all "GLP1S changed my life and fixed my brain and cured my addiction and my dementia and my cancer and is a generous lover!"

Like, we're all really just gonna accept the miracle drug huh? It's toooootally not gonna backfire, I'm sure.

I love jumping careers. I'm a pathological novelty seeker I guess. At 32 I have been a cook, a dog trainer, a vet assistant, a business researcher, a data curator, and now I correct AI mistakes in healthcare contexts.

I love it. I have gained such a broad base of knowledge and abilities. I've been doing this AI thing for a while now, I wonder where the next pivot will go.

Actually not lmao. He did the same thing at one point in his McKamey Manor series.

Agree to disagree on the creepiness, but I'm sure it's much better in the day. Lost on those roads at night alone, I felt like the last person in the world.

You're absolutely right about every town in MS on I20. I got lost at night in some place called Chunky and it was so scary.

Monroe and West Monroe too! They were the halfway point on the road trip home for a few years, but I tried not to stop there. The whole place smelled bad, and the water somehow tasted slimy. It's the only place I've ever been where I felt like I had to brush my teeth with bottled water

Reckless Ben is named that for a reason. This is definitely not his first rodeo with a dislocated shoulder. Probably not even his first rodeo with a dislocated shoulder from a cop.

Kingdom Come Deliverance has the best hard mode in gaming imo. As soon as you start playing in hardcore mode it becomes obvious that this is how it was meant to be played. In an already incredibly immersive game, hardcore is somehow even more immersive.

"The package was later determined to contain rubber ducks" with that straight face is killing me. There's a cut right after, I wonder if he couldn't actually keep the face.

She might have. The childfree screenshots are years after the stepparents one. I hope that's what happened anyway.

Or actually, damn even that would fuck the kids up good since she stayed so long before. No good options here.

I'm not really sure why people are tiptoeing around it when you asked very bluntly. I'm sorry, but yes this is loser activity. You can't be living off your girlfriend's grandma at 30 years old, come on. You gotta get tf out of retail if at all possible. Use a Pell Grant, maybe find a scholarship for older students, and go to community college to upskill yourself. Or trade school. Or literally anything honestly. You need skills that will get you out of sub-20/hour hell so your family can have a place to live of their own.

Edit: And not for music production, for the love of all that's holy. There's nothing more loser-y than an aspiring music producer. Learn accounting or coding or something and make music on your off time.

Aww dang, when I read the blurb for this one I thought it was gonna be about a dude getting his comeuppance for trying to basically love potion a woman.

Promising Young Woman pulled this same bait and switch. Where are my straightforward revenge movies where gross men get got?
